Hi, I came by to promote this, but it does not appear to be a 5x expansion. On September 8, before expansion began,
the character count was 1290. As of the latest edit on September 14,
the character count is 4933. Another 303 characters are needed to reach a 5x expansion.

- Thanks @
Yoninah:.
The original expansion had characters deleted by another editor, but have now added text so it now stands at 5,677 characters.

- @ Iainmacintyre: thank you. My Java Script counter counts 5,668 characters. But a 5x expansion from the 1,290 figure would be 6,450 characters. Yoninah ( talk) 22:38, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks @
Yoninah:. Further expanded. Wikipedia character counter now shows 6519 characters. Can hopefully now be promoted.

Yes, the character count is at 6593 char now. No close paraphrasing seen in new text. Restoring tick per Ergo Sum's review.
